Upper Clackamas Whitewater Festival

The Upper Clackamas Whitewater Festival was started in 1984 by the Northwest Rafter’s Association. It’s a weekend of fun and exciting whitewater activities. 2024 will mark the 38th anniversary of this great tribal gathering. 

The festival became an independent Non-Profit organization in 2013. This organization is dedicated to continuing the festival into the future and strives to embrace the entire Whitewater community.

The Mission of the Upper Clackamas Whitewater Festival is to:

  • Promote river education
  • Safety
  • Competition
  • Camaraderie
  • River stewardship
